Asian lawyers report mental health challenges at a higer rate than the legal profession as a whole. 61% reported anxiety, 46% deported depression, and 8% reported panic disorders. #faclON17 @faclOntario

Coming out of hibernation to share an important cause dear to me. Take a moment to help low-income seniors living in Vancouver's Chinatown. The fundraiser will be used to provide food, translation services to isolated seniors.@YarrowSociety fundrazr.com/yarrow2022?ref=…

"This Labour Day, in the shadow of a federal election and another spike of COVID cases, the invisible side of anti-Asian racism hidden behind the model minority myth — valuing certain labour over others — must be made visible again." @initialvw @KennesLin thestar.com/opinion/contribu…

Dad's are the best.

Yesterday I met Finance reps to discuss the proposed Canadian Digital Services Tax - new tax legislation since GST in 1991. A personal milestone after 6 years of tracking it, researching it for LLM, and despite others calling it a 'pet project' - so yes, I'm very pleased.

Six Asian women died while at work. Does it matter where they worked? Insinuate that it included sex? This narrative perpetuates the dangerous, racist tropes of Asian women. I'm sure sexualizing the women is easier to accept than calling this what it is - a hate crime.

You start and end my day, everyday.

Thank you to the friends and loved ones who have reached out since Thursday to share their condolences. We don't have any meaning to this moment yet, but our family is so deeply grateful for the love shared. This space will be dark for the next bit. dignitymemorial.com/obituari…

My beloved Dad has died. As a final act of love, he fought for two hours so that I could join my family and see him one last time. He was selfless and thought only of his kids. He bought his first tux for my wedding and will now wear it for his final party. Our hearts are broken.

Wednesday is #BellLetsTalk, and every year I tweet up a storm. But this year I'm taking a break to care for my family's mental health. My dad is a lion of a man, but this week (months) has made him a little pup. Me and my family using that good energy for dad.

The @businessinsider article by @AylinWoodward on "what Chinese wet markets look like" is exploitive. No context to the pictures shown. Just Chinese people shown as dirty, inhumane carnivores. How did that article meet editorial standards? Appalling.

Join the @OBAlawyers media & communications group on Feb 5 for a panel discussion on fake news. From privacy, IP to platform liability. We promise it is 100% fact-checked and won't be phony! A Hoax! Total Lies! cbapd.org/details_en.aspx?id…

For Christmas this year I bought several copies of @stillots1 great book and gifted it out like candy to all tax, history and @DAL_FASS nerds, colleagues, and mentees. Each were overjoyed. Finally cozying up with my copy today.

Every Christmas, when I travel to see family, I listen to Vinyl Cafe. Like a family friend, I really miss Stuart McLean. 🍗 @cbcradio – at Ottawa, Ontario

Glad to see these guidelines come to fruition. After writing about the issue for @ADodek SCC class seminar, it's kinda exciting to see an obscure (at the time) ethics issue become part of a national debate! cbc.ca/news/politics/stefano…

Gut punch. Mental decline, like mental health, remains complex and painful for families going through it. – at Toronto, Ontario
